I really don't recommend going to Guilin in May...

Guilin in May is like a magnet for rain. The Li River's water level rises sharply, causing the bamboo rafts to stop running, and the Yulong River rafting turns into a "muddy adventure." The water on Yangshuo West Street is knee-deep, Elephant Trunk Hill Park is closed due to flood control, and even the "Impression Sanjie Liu" show is canceled because the stage is flooded. What's more dangerous is that continuous heavy rainfall has triggered landslides, and the Longji Rice Terraces viewing platform is temporarily closed. The original poetic landscape has become a "yellow mud soup," and tourists can only stay in hotels and scroll through their phones. If you go at this time, I suggest checking the weather forecast three times a day and preparing non-slip shoes and a waterproof camera.
